[Verse]
Em                 A              D
It's 50 miles from Leakey down to Hondo
         Em                   A                   D
(There's)No straight shot the roads all twist and curve
Em       A           D
Another 45 on in to San Antone
         Em         A                D
Seems a long way to go for just one girl

Em                 A
He pulls up Monday morning
         D
Puts his window down
Em              A                D
Grins and tells me to breathe in deep
    Em            A                  D
Her perfume still lingers from their last date
           Em
Says he's late for work
          A                    D
Leaves me standing in the street

     Em               A
He's taken to wearing starched shirts
        D
And his boots stay shined
Em                A             D
Keeps that old truck neat as a pin
    Em            A              D
Her picture gazes down from his visor
      Em                 A                  D
At an empty dash where a spit cup should've been


[Chorus]
G                  A                   D
Hey runnin' buddy, what'll ya say to a twelve pack
G                  A                         D
Hey runnin' buddy, whatcha say to settin' some lines
G                  A
Hey runnin' buddy, don't you remember
    D             Bm
The good times we had
          G                   A           D
'fore you hooked up with that San Antonio girl


[Verse]
Em               A               D
I've known Jimmy Wayne since the second grade
    Em                A                D
His mom and him moved in from Copperas Cove
Em                      A               D
We've always chased the girls down in Uvalde
          Em               A           D
Don't see why he needs him one in San Antone

Em                    A              D
First date, they went dancing at a VFW
  Em             A               D
A rough spot for such a cultured pearl
   Em                A                   D
Matched him beer for beer, and she could polka
      Em                      A          D
So he fell in love with that San Antonio girl


[Chorus]
G                  A                   D
Hey runnin' buddy, what'll you say to a twelve pack
G                  A                         D
Hey runnin' buddy, whatcha say to runnin' some lines
G                  A
Hey runnin' buddy, don't you remember
    D             Bm
The good times we had
          G                   A           D
'fore you hooked up with that San Antonio girl

[Verse]
     Em               A                  D
Well we never just go drink beer like we used to
Em               A                   D
Road hunt, shoot signs, or shoot the breeze
      Em               A              D
Every weekend he loads up and goes to see her
        Em                  A                 D
I guess that old gal's just way more fun than me

       Em             A               D
It's a long haul from Leakey to San Antonio
Em                    A                   D
No straight shot, the roads all twist and bend
Em              A                 D
Maybe come next Friday, I'll ride with him
       Em               A          D
See if she has got some San Antonio friends


[Chorus]
G                  A                    D
Hey runnin' buddy, what'll you say to a twelve pack
G                          A                   D
Hey runnin' buddy, whatcha say to runnin' some lines

(on the gals from San Antone)
G                  A                   D                Bm
Hey runnin' buddy, wait'll you see the good times we'll have
        G                 A          D
When we both hook up with San Antonio girls

G                  A                     D
Hey runnin' buddy, what'll you say to a twelve pack
G                          A                   D
